The leader of the group, Shay, said he first heard about the Buz Stop Boys from his mum, who found them on TikTok.
"It's incredible what you do, and we need more people like this to volunteer," Shay said.
Heneba Kojo Sarfo, leader of the Buz Stop Boys expressed gratitude to the volunteers for coming from the UK to support their good course.
"Our brothers in the diaspora are coming all the way from the UK to support volunteerism and patriotism. Don't sit back at home and say you don't care. One thing is key, without the environment, we are all useless, we are nonentities, and we can't survive on this planet," he said.
